Goodbye Christopher Robin Reviews
The experience of snuggling up with the Goodbye Christopher Robin blanket of testimony and memories is as affectingly dramatic as it is comfortably warm.

While Goodbye, Christopher Robin is a bit of a sad story, I think it can be a great inspiration for parents to encourage their children's imaginations.

Curtis separates 'Goodbye Christopher Robin' from the usual ham-fisted, dry-as-dust bio-pic.
| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Apr 21, 2021
Like so much of the hoary, prestige moviemaking that floods cinemas in the fall, Goodbye Christopher Robin is too sure-footed to be truly moving.

The emotional ups and downs of realizations, tragedies, and reunions are entirely effective.
| Original Score: 8/10 | Dec 5, 2020
Curtis successfully balances his film's sadder elements with moments of merriment and bliss, and he gives the scenes of bonding between awkward father and neglected son an appropriately honey-golden glow.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Oct 16, 2020
Despite good work from its cast that complement its themes, the script can't help but sanitize and speed through the sadder, much deeper story that lie at the film's core.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 23, 2020
This is the kind of the movie that words like 'nice' or 'precious' were invented to describe.
| Original Score: B | Jul 17, 2020
Much credit goes to the two British lads who play Christopher Robin.

It's a good one to share with the family and a beautiful piece of period filmmaking, costumes and all.

While it won't tick all the boxes of a classic biopic, it was engaging insight into the world of AA Milne; his life, and the life of his imaginary and not so imaginary friends.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Sep 14, 2019
There's an awful lot of weight for one movie to carry, but the strain really only becomes apparent during the latter passages.
| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jul 21, 2019
A lovely and wistful walk down memory lane that reminds us that the past isn't always sunny as we may want to believe,
| Original Score: 3/4 | Jun 4, 2019
Goodbye Christopher Robin has some appealing performances but even for a biopic it is a little too slow-moving and scattershot. It's absolutely not a kids movie.
| Original Score: 6.5/10 | May 17, 2019
A slow setup causes the story to feel unfocused.
| Original Score: C | May 8, 2019
Christopher Robin is a well crafted movie that dabbles too often with a self-congratulating nostalgia. [Full review in Spanish]
| Original Score: 6.5/10 | Mar 27, 2019
With outstanding performances, a painfully truthful story to tell, and imaginatively artistic flourishes, this Winnie is a winner.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Feb 22, 2019
This film accomplished the most unimaginable feat of all: it actually made me feel bad about liking 'Winnie the Pooh.'
| Original Score: 2/5 | Dec 21, 2018
This is the stuff of which tears, tissues, and awards are made . . . and willy nilly silly old bears.

There's a good movie buried somewhere within the cluttered mess of Goodbye Christopher Robin, but Simon Curtis and company didn't take the time to figure out which story they wanted to tell.
